Escarole W.Pancetta - Atkins Recipe
Ingredients:
3 oz pancetta (italian bacon), 1/3-inch dice
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 clove garlic, slice thin
1 small onion, chop fine
1 head escarole, chop coarse (~6 cups)
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions:
Escarole, along with radicchio and endive, is a chicory. Its slightly
bitter flavor mellows when cooked. If you can't find pancetta, you may
substitute regular bacon.
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook pancetta until the fat melts.
Discard all but 2 tbs of fat. Add oil and onion; cook 5 minutes, until
onion is softened. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
2. Add escarole, salt, and pepper; mix well. Cover and cook 10 minutes,
until escarole is wilted. Remove cover, raise heat to medium-high, and cook
to evaporate most of the liquid, about 5 minutes.

The metaphor of the melting pot is unfortunate and misleading. A more accurate analogy would be a salad bowl, for, though the salad is an
entity, the lettuce can still be distinguished from the chicory, the tomatoes from the cabbage.
